Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
This role is suited to a UK-registered GP with enhanced or special interest in dermatology, ideally holding relevant postgraduate training and current GMC registration. The successful candidate will assess, diagnose and manage dermatological conditions, provide appropriate treatments, recognise suspected skin cancers and refer patients when necessary. Experience in minor surgery, lesion assessment, clinical photography, teledermatology or community dermatology may be valuable. Candidates are expected to demonstrate sound clinical judgement, excellent communication, accurate record keeping and effective multidisciplinary working. A commitment to patient-centred care, clinical governance, safeguarding, confidentiality and continuing professional development is essential.
Can I work in the UK?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: NHS nurses, doctors and allied health get a Health and Care Worker visa (about 3 weeks, no health surcharge); care workers lost this route on 22 July 2025.
Before you apply: Nurses, doctors and most allied health staff must be registered or licensed locally before they start: expect checks on your degree and licence, often an English test, and often an exam or an assessment. Ask the employer who handles it and how long it takes. Most pharma and device office jobs do not need it.
Watch for: Pay follows the NHS pay bands and is usually at least GBP 25,000. Nurses and allied health also need UK professional registration; care workers cannot be sponsored from abroad.
